Hmmm, there should be a word for that.

I clicked on one bloody thread and now every 3rd post is japannews

That's just wrong on so many levels. The number of Americans who actually voted against Trump is pitiful. The vast majority supported him twice.

Counting people who didn't vote as if they voted against him is like standing in the street right next to some guys who beats up the kid he came with, while muttering "I'm neither for nor against hitting children".

You Americans are both crazy deluded and morally bankrupt citizens of a crumbling empire. Not the first time this happened in history. Not impressive either.

What disclaimer? The one locked in the bottom of a filing cabinet in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door that reads "Beware of the Zeptosaurus"?

Build what, exactly??

What they promised??

Cure cancer. Solve world hunger. Fix climate change. Etc.

They can't even be profitable, whereas my niece can make money from selling lemonade on a hot Saturday.

AI execs are a waste of space.

The market will kill it naturally

Yes there's a mechanism for that. It's called destroying a part of your life. Maybe you lose your job "naturally". Maybe you lose 10-20 years of your wealth growth "naturally". Maybe crime goes up in your neighborhood "naturally".

No. There's nothing "natural" about market repricing mechanisms, they are destructive, and many people get hurt. In the case of the AI bubble, those getting hurt are not the billionaires early investors, unless we actively resist it.

You're either with us or against us, like one of your compatriots used to say.

ALL THE MONEY!!!

AI slop is a completely different kind of slop from bad human programming. You can't mix up AI slop and bad human programming into one single category. That's an oversimplification which hinders intelligent discussion.

And it doesn't use MongoDB.

MongoDB is webscale.

Also an additional question: If AI writes most of your code today and god forbid if both Anthropic + OpenAI close shop tomorrow, who will write most of your code then?

That's right, my point is exactly that. Humans live in the human world where herd mentality is the law and your job as a child is to master enough social patterns so that you can thrive during your lifetime. That game is a lot more complex than trying to pass off an LLM text as a human text.

On your second paragraph, I would merely indicate to you that the high water mark is not the same as the low watermark, or the median or the mean. Pointing to a few instances of "excellent writing" is statistical noise if the bulk of normal LLM written instances does not also qualify as "excellent writing". But if most or all instances of LLM writing objectively constituted "excellent writing" then it would be very easy to spot, as it would stand out against human "average writing". Either way, the in-crowd can recognize the out-crowd.

Excellent! Luckily I have a life outside of slashdot :)
